-I have the fight song as my ring tone! (lol, yes this has to remind me of you all, why wouldn't it? ALL those times we've played it. lol)
-Always have a deck of cards handy
-I'll always be found in the band room at TAP and sometimes Lunch. (depends on if I'm filing music or not, lol)
-When there is a spider, hanging from the ceiling, right infront of you, and you show signs of arachnophobia, Mr. J. will blow at the spider and send it swinging your way, just to watch you squrim. (Mr. J., I dunno if I'll ever forgive you for that...)
-Band = second family, Band room = second home, Mr. J. = second father. (Just incase this wasn't stated before, which I'm sure it was.)
-Long bus rides to/from Mount Vernon are fun!
-When sitting in the stands, after halftime, make sure to have something warm to drink. It helps!
-There will be many more times where we'll get some flashback story from Mr. J.
-Note to self: Think about switching to another insturment to avoid ducking under the baton and catching bumped stands. (lol, Nah, I'm not going to switch! I LOVE SITTING IN THE FRONT ROW!)
-Crazy analogies ('nuff said...)
-He does NOT look like Kenny Chesney! (Okay, maybe a little....fine a lot, doggone it they are like long lost twins or something!)
-The band room floor is never clean. EVER!
-Standing underneath the scoreboard lights before halftime does NOT make you any warmer than you were before.
-Duct tape fixes EVERYTHING!
-Atleast once a week, during band class, you get one of the crappiest stands.
-The only reason why you end up with one of the crappy stands once a week is because the majority of the SC music stands ARE crap.
-During marching band practice, Mr. J. will tell you NOT to stand in the mud but insist that the lines are straight and evenly spaced AND are where he wants them. (Which is usually in the mud....)
-Falling asleep to golf can result in unwanted, sick, demented band dreams.
-Key changes suck.
-Candy cane flutes at winter concerts. (lol, SB band people understand this....)
-Danica's stories always start out with "This one time, at band camp..." or "This one time, in Ireland..." etc.
